They are often used in committing crimes, including those more serious. Registration number plates are an essential element of the vehicle identification. DVLA uses them in all procedures. Stolen plates are mounted on other vehicles and used in committing such crimes as: speeding, parking in prohibited areas, to avoid paying fines for polluting, stealing the fuel at petrol stations, and to avoid payment of fines for parking or speeding while using stolen cars. Cars with stolen plates are used also for more serious crimes such as kidnapping or robbery. Special new arrays are designed to hinder the thief quickly up to their disassembly.
DVLA is currently working on this issue with many stakeholders. Far-reaching benefits of this can be: reduction in the number of incorrectly classified crimes, reduction of the number of “cloning” cars and selling stolen cars with changed number plates. In order to develop the technology and establish standards for new tables DVLA is co-working with plate producers. When you become a victim of the number plates rubbery, you get penalties and fines for offenses or crimes of others. In this case, the necessary step is to contact with the police and explain the whole thing as soon as possible.

That means that stolen cars are equipped with registration numbers copied from similar, fully legal cars. In that case the steps you should take are following: You would have to return any orders to pay fines, penalties with attached appropriate documentation demonstrating that you were not the crime.
